Tamiya 54178 M-05 Aluminium Rear Upright Spare  [54178]

Boost Rear Control with the Tamiya 54178 Aluminium Upright

The Tamiya 54178 Aluminium Rear Upright is a carefully made upgrade aimed at improving the behaviour of M-05, M-03 and M-04 chassis models. Fabricated from aluminium, it reduces component weight while reinforcing the rear suspension mounting points.

Why Aluminium Works Well in RC Parts

Aluminium is chosen for upgrades because it balances lightness and strength. Fitting the Tamiya 54178 helps lower unsprung mass and adds structural integrity, which can improve consistency through a variety of corner types.
